TRACE METAL CONTROL OF BACTERIAL FLAGELLATION.

摘要: SPECIFIC alterations in the normal battery of biosynthetic processes often occur when moderate changes are made balance metallic ions environment. In microbial systems, for example, quantities synthesized organic acids, porphyrins, vitamins, antibiotics, toxins, enzymes, lipids, and polysaccharides controlled by precise balances that permit, but not necessarily optimal for, vegetative growth. Likewise, execution such physiological as cell division; sporulation; germination; plasmodia vesicle formation; adsorption, induction, synthesis bacterial viruses depends on concentrations specific differ from minimum needed protoplasm. Indeed, tolerance growth to fluctuation ion environment is considerably greater than tolerated a or process1.
